Miami Dolphins nose tackle Paul Soliai signed a two-year contract to remain with the team, canceling a visit to the Denver Broncos, according to Sporting News correspondent Ben Volin of the Palm Beach (Fla.) Post.

The deal reportedly will pay Soliai $6 million per season.

It also could mean the Dolphins are out of the hunt for quarterback Peyton Manning, Volin reported. Barring additional salary cap maneuvers, the team is tight on cap space.

Last season Soliai played under a franchise-tag contract that guaranteed him about $12.5 million. He will be a free agent again in 2014.

Soliai, 28, anchored the Dolphins' defense and went to the Pro Bowl for the first time last season, making the trip as a roster replacement. He was a fourth-round draft by the Dolphins in 2007 and has started since 2009.

Manning visited the Tennessee Titans on Wednesday and had talks with the Broncos and Arizona Cardinals over the weekend. He met with Dolphins coach Joe Philbin earlier this week.

In addition to the Broncos, Soliai had talks with the Kansas City Chiefs and Indianapolis Colts on his agenda, Volin reported. However, he preferred to remain with the Dolphins.
